2 day Gallipoli and Try tour
I had booked a 2 day Gallipoli and Troy tour with Fez Travel. This was a present for my husbands 60th birthday and we went with 2 other couples.
We were met by Omer Faruk (tour guide) and Onur the driver in a luxurious mini bus, we travelled for 4 hours from Istanbul to Çanakkale. As this was a trip about my husbands grandad who landed in Gallipoli during the 1st world war, Omer and Onur were happy to change the itinerary and make this bespoke to us to enable a trip to Suvla Bay as well as the trip to all the cemeteries and the Anzac tour. The tours for Gallipoli and Troy were spread over 1 and a half days.
During the tours and including the stay at the hotel Omer ensured we were looked after and interpreted for us with staff, he was very knowledgeable about everything we saw and encouraged us to ask questions.
Thank you Omer and Onur for going out of your own to make this trip a very memorable one.
Operator response
Thank you so much for taking the time to share this incredibly touching review of your 2-day Gallipoli and Troy tour. First and foremost, a very happy 60th birthday to your husband! We are deeply honored that you chose Fez Travel to celebrate such a milestone and to retrace his grandfather's historic footsteps.
Hearing that Omer Faruk and Onur were able to adjust the itinerary on the fly to include Suvla Bay brings a massive smile to our faces. For us, history isn’t just a script to read from; it is deeply personal. We always aim to make these journeys as meaningful as possible, especially when our guests have a direct family connection to the Anzac story. Thank you again for trusting us with such a precious family memory. We hope the stories and moments you shared in Çanakkale stay with your family for generations to come. Whenever you wish to return to Türkiye, you will always be welcome back!

Good your !!
Omer Faruk was our guide on this tour and Murat was our driver. Was a great tour - Omer was very knowledgeable and friendly. It was just myself and my friend and we literally had nobody else there but us. Omer took us to a great place for lunch on our way from Istanbul to Gallipoli. We stayed in a hotel called the Barossa Hotel in Çanakkale which I wouldn’t rate. The room smelt like sewerage and the bedding was minimal. But overall enjoyed the tour.
Operator response
Thank you very much for taking the time to share your feedback with us. We are so pleased to hear that you enjoyed your tour with Ömer Faruk and Murat, and that you appreciated the guiding, driving, and overall experience of Gallipoli. I will be sure to pass along your kind words to both of them.
We are, however, truly sorry to hear that your stay at the hotel in Çanakkale did not meet your expectations. We completely understand how important accommodation is for overall comfort. In Çanakkale, the choice of hotels is unfortunately quite limited compared to larger cities like Istanbul or Izmir. Our priority when selecting hotels is to choose properties that are centrally located, practical for early tour departures, and able to consistently accommodate our groups. While these hotels are suitable for short stays, we realise they may not always offer the same standards as those in major tourist hubs.
Your feedback is very valuable to us and will be shared with our team so we can continue to review and improve the accommodation options we provide. Despite this, we are delighted that you enjoyed the tour itself and we truly appreciate you travelling with us.
We hope to welcome you as we Fez Travel on another journey in the future.

3 Days of 5 star service
We were collected in an air conditioned limousine from our hotel & from then on it was an outstanding experience. Our guide, Omer, was polite, punctual & knowledgeable. He understood both our needs & Australian humour. Nothing was a problem, the accommodation & food & beverage options went beyond our expectations. Can’t recommend highly enough.
Operator response

Gallipoli/ Troy overnight Tour from Istanbul
Took the two day/ overnight tour to Gallipoli and Troy with our guide Omer
Thank you to Fez Travel for providing us with a guide like Omer
He made our two days very enjoyable and was a very professional guide who had a great personality and had an extensive knowledge of the area we were visiting
Omer’s attention to detail was amazing and he made sense of the history of Troy but also the history of the Gallipoli campaign.
Omer gave us plenty of time to absorb the sights and being at Gallipoli where so much sadness occurred was truly moving
Our driver was particularly skilful and made for a relaxing transfer

Gallipoli and Troy in 2 Days, just Right!
Words are hard to describe the experience of Gallipoli…As Australians we felt a deep emotional connection. This was enhanced by Omer’s detailed knowledge and local perspective. His Troy stories were also enlightening. Omer tailored his commentary and itinerary to our specific interests. Our driver, Murat was exceptional!
Both staff were obliging, attentive, friendly and very professional.
We would highly recommend this experience!

Gallipoli and Troy adventure
We hav we just completed our Troy / Gallipoli two day tour...a great experience. Day 1 saw us visit the "stacked" city of Troy, plus a quick visit to the naval museum...up close and personal in a submarine! Day 2 was the Gallipoli tour...a must for all Aussies and Kiwis. Through it all, our guide Omer was well organised, helpful and good fun to be with...add our trusty and skilled driver Jengis and it made for a great tour. Slightly less enthused with the Hilton Hotel at Cannakale...efficient I suppose, but snooty...we weren't made to feel welome at all. Rest of the trip? Awesome!
